Lincoln City have swooped for talented Peterborough United midfielder Michael Bostwick.

The 29-year-old joins the Imps on a two-year deal after being placed in the transfer list by Posh at the end of last season with a year remaining on his contract.

Bostwick made 228 appearances during his five-year spell at London Road.

Last season he played more than 40 games for the League One club, scoring seven goals.

At the same time as unveiling Bostwick, the Imps revealed they had also completed the permanent signing of winger Harry Anderson, who impressed on loan at Sincil Bank last season.

City manager Danny Cowley said: "We are delighted to announce these two signings and I'd like to thank everybody at the club for their huge effort in making it possible.

"This has been an incredibly challenging window but to make these additions has made all the hard work worthwhile.

"Very infrequently I am surprised by football. But I have to admit that to acquire the signature of Michael Bostwick was beyond my wildest expectations for our football club.

"To be able to bring in a top League One player who won various individual awards at Peterborough last year represents outstanding business on our part.

"He has been part of successful teams before and his experience will be invaluable to our young group. He is fiercely competitive, incredibly determined and has real fighting qualities. Consequently he is completely aligned with the group of players who we already have at the club."

Bostwick began his career at Milwall before spells at Crawley, Rushden, Ebbsfleet and Stevenage.

He spent five years at the latter before moving to Peterborough in 2012.
